Q. & A. with Don
Why did you start breeding?
I love animals and I am always looking to improve the breed. I have a small farm and plenty of room for my dogs to thrive indoors and outdoors on the farm.
What makes your program special?
Every dog is registered with AKC. All dogs are genetic health tested. All dogs have their eyes and hips certified by OFA. All puppies have tails docked and dewclaws removed. All puppies are vaccinated by a veterinarian before leaving to new homes. All puppies are sold with contract.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
